Re: Are Gay People "Abnormal"?

Then being a homosexual is not compulsive....it's a choice....for you.

If I don't choose who I find sexually arousing, then how could I choose to be homosexual?

Then you, my friend, are making a choice.

Of course there is a choice. I choose a behavior based upon how I feel. However how I feel is what makes me homosexual not what I do. Or do you argue who I do and do not find sexually aruosuing is irrelevant to my sexual orientation?

Is sexual attraction to men all that makes you attracted to the lifestyle?

Yeah, really. Homosexual behavior is a choice, in the same way any action is a choice. But one does not choose to feel a sexual impulse, and one cannot choose which sex to direct ones sexual attraction. Being a homosexual is not a choice, even though acting on it is a choice.

I understand this. I was just going along with what CT was saying to see where he would go with it.

I have a step daughter who chose to live life as a homosexual at 43 yrs old. After two heterosexual marriages and 3 children and a grand child.
Her mother asked her if she thought she was born like that...and she said no I couldnt have been. I never gave it a thought until she met her live in girlfriend at work....
